Fatigue tests are carried out for different purposes. The engineering objectives are the determination of fatigue properties of materials, joints, structural elements, etc., including comparisons of different design options. Research objectives of fatigue tests are concerned with understanding of the fatigue phenomenon and its variables. Research objectives and engineering objectives may be complementary.
